HART-RANSOM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

School Website: Hart-Ransom Elementary School

Hart-Ransom Elementary School is proud of our academic strength and our long-standing community history. The K-8 campus is located in a rural setting on the west side of Modesto. The school is rich in family history; many of our students are third and fourth generation Hart-Ransom students. Hart-Ransom is also rich in diversity and all students and their families become part of the Hart-
Ransom family.

Hart-Ransom Elementary School boasts a strong instructional program based on the California Content Standards. The learning philosophy is grounded in the belief that all students can and will learn. Our highly qualified, dedicated staff works effectively with students, facilitating high achievement for all. We are proud that we earned the CALIFORNIA DISTINGUISHED SCHOOLS AWARD for 2010, as a result of our strides in student achievement. Many extra-curricular academic activities enrich the learning of students. Participation in Spelling Bee, Science Olympiad, Future Cities competition and other county events combine learning and teamwork for both students and staff.

Positive personal growth is a priority and students are encouraged and recognized for their positive contributions to the school. Through programs such as I’m a Bucket-Filler, Renaissance, Accelerated Reading, Choose Civility, Hart-Ransom Heroes and special campus events, the students learn much more than the three “R’s”; they also learn to be valuable and contributing citizens of their community. Hart-Ransom Elementary School is truly a good place for children and adults to learn and grow, and together we continue to “Soar into Tomorrow"
